@chillaxer1993 There still are some that still sign off nowadays instead of the crap airing after midnight (and these stations consider them crap too.).
How freaking cool is this signoffl!!! What a great tribute to aerospace engineering out here! We never had anything this cool growing up in the South. I think it was a still of a confederate flag and Swanney River playing ... LOL ;D
@jolieblondeLA Ch. 7 had the creepiest sign-offs of all of Los Angeles televsion back then, due to the use of overly dramatic music and Lenn Beardsleys' over the top delivery that made me afraid to sleep on rare occasions; Sign-offs started becoming extinct at this time(I was child then), because American television started broadcasting 24 hours a day.
I wish I could find the "sign-off" that a Los Angeles TV station used back in the late 70's where they would use the "2001 Space Odyssey" (Also Spake Zarathustra) as images of the Apollo and Saturn 5 rockets where being shown. Does anyone remember that scene?
Oh, how cool. I used to stay up just to listen to this piece of music. Took me many years to find out it is "Jupiter" from Gustav Holst's "The Planets." Thanks for posting. :)
Sounds like this version was arranged by Giorgio Moroder.

Background music eerily reminds me of propaganda music.
